\"\"<\/a>Who is the priest Tom\u00e1\u0161 Hal\u00edk and who do people say that he is? He acts as an advocate and saviour of Christianity despised by him, and he allegedly raises it to a \u201chigher\u201d level. Hal\u00edk is a member of the Masonic Committee of Wise Persons in the EU<\/span>. His dream is to occupy the post of President at the Prague Castle or at least the post of the Archbishop of Prague. Cardinal Vlk has always approved of his heretical activities<\/span> and assigned him to pastoral care of the university youth, whom Hal\u00edk has systematically infected with the spirit of Buddhism. The Katolick\u00fd t\u00fdden\u00edk (Catholic Weekly) publishes his articles and advertises his books. The common believers therefore regard them as the voice of the true Catholic Church.<\/p>\n

Many Catholics, however, rightly ask the question: Is Tom\u00e1\u0161 Hal\u00edk a true Catholic priest or a heretic? What methods does he use?<\/p>\n

1. Method of professional lying<\/strong><\/p>\n

Hal\u00edk undermines the reader\u2019s or listener\u2019s solid foundation of the saving faith. He forces the defenders of orthodoxy to be the first to formulate his hidden heresies. Then he uses their own statements to ridicule them and to knock them out as primitives who are far from understanding his level of knowledge. He creates an impression that he outclasses them and that he elevates Christianity both intellectually and spiritually. He is really a master of lies and deceit<\/span> in this respect, misusing words, giving them different meanings and artfully distorting the truth at various levels<\/span>. He uses Christian terminology but introduces the spirit of the old-new gnosis, the spirit of the New Age!<\/span><\/p>\n

He condemns the orthodox as ones who are making Christianity repugnant and even unacceptable for people with a higher intelligence quotient. Hal\u00edk\u2019s notions of faith and salvation are diametrically opposed to the 2000-year-old orthodox Christian doctrine.<\/p>\n

Hal\u00edk says: \u201cThe Resurrection of Christ is not another miracle such as the marvels familiar to every reader of the Bible…<\/span>\u201d<\/em> (T. Hal\u00edk: Night of the Confessor, 2006, p.11f). What does Hal\u00edk mean to say by this statement? First of all, he covertly denies whatever miracle and, undoubtedly, even the greatest miracle of the Bible \u2013 the Resurrection of Christ<\/strong>. However, he does not say it clearly. He counts on human pride and on the fact that a Catholic wants to look \u201cwise\u201d so as to be taken seriously. But in order to be taken seriously by Hal\u00edk, one has to renounce normal thinking because this looks primitive<\/span>. One has to adopt a kind of \u201chigher\u201d thinking and \u201chigher\u201d knowledge (gnosis). Who is not willing to respect this \u201chigher\u201d knowledge of his (today the New Age and Buddhist gnosis) and to regard him as an expert in spiritual sphere is considered to be on a low spiritual and intelligence level, unable to dialogue with him. Hal\u00edk evokes an atmosphere of pride and draws his listeners, especially young people, into it. He starts speaking to them of Christian mysteries in this spirit, and then suddenly, without being conscious of it, they draw such conclusions in which all the essential truths of Christianity are denied and ridiculed<\/span>. Hal\u00edk usually does not express the heresies clearly but his listeners automatically draw an inference in that spirit and accept them in their minds<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Hal\u00edk continues about the Resurrection: \u201cThis concept (image or metaphor, if you wish…) means much more.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

We ask: What more? In fact, Hal\u00edk here, but also elsewhere, covertly denies the very historical and real event of the Resurrection of Christ! This heretical doctrine was already condemned by the Apostle Paul as well as by the whole orthodox Church tradition.<\/strong> By vague and ambiguous statements, Hal\u00edk spreads the spirit of heresy and denies the fundamental truths of the faith!<\/p>\n

If Hal\u00edk\u2019s heretical statement was to be transformed into an orthodox one, it would have to be put like this, for example: The real and historical Resurrection of Christ, which is neither an image nor a metaphor, has been the greatest proof of the Divinity of Jesus!<\/em> However, Hal\u00edk never speaks on the matters of faith so clearly and soundly.<\/p>\n
